Those other things : for SATB voices and piano / Katy Abbott ; text: Chris Wallace-Crabbe.
Library shelf no. 782.5542/ABB 1 [Available for loan]
Work Overview
The work takes its text from a collection of poems by Chris Wallace-Crabbe. Chris kindly allowed me to take selected lines from various works from New and Selected Poems:
If you can slip your fingernail under reality's near edge,
you then begin to hear those other things.
Long gone melody
The air vibrating with fragility
Texture delicate as lace
An edge, the edge of something but
Is it in Space or Time?
Edges go.
Approving mystery with all my heart.
